accelerated from a stop sign and engine cut out, leaving me stopped dead in the middle of the street, the engine would not restart after 4 tries, I let it sit, I googled the incident, and was told to let car sit for a minute and try to restart. I let it sit for a minute and it restarted like nothing happened. Google said there was a sensor fault because of an error temperature reading in the crank position sensor, so the car shut down to protect the engine. I think this could have been a dangerous situation, if there had been traffic. the temperature gauge read normal.

On June 3, 2026, my 2019 Ford Edge (2.0L EcoBoost) experienced a sudden loss of motive power and stalled in the middle of a busy, high-traffic intersection. Before stalling, the vehicle emitted thick white smoke from the exhaust. This was a life-threatening situation as I was stranded in moving traffic. The vehicle was towed to Mike Burkart Ford, where it was diagnosed with an internal EGR cooler leak. This is a known issue documented by Ford in TSB 20-2234. Despite the safety-critical nature of the stall, there is currently no active recall for this component in the 2019 model year.

Safety Complaint – 2019 Ford Edge Transmission and Engine Shutdown Issues To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint to report ongoing safety-related defects with my 2019 Ford Edge, which I purchased new. At 30,000 miles, the auto on/off stopped working and was not fixed. After approximately 50,000 miles, the vehicle began shutting off after refueling. At 68,000 miles, the transmission started shuddering during acceleration. There was no warning light, I just noticed that something was wrong. This behavior is extremely concerning, as it creates a risk of sudden loss of power while driving and could result in an accident. Ford is aware of these issues but has not issued a recall. I paid to have the torque converter replaced; however, the same transmission problem has returned. Ford has declined to provide further assistance. Additionally, the check engine light is now illuminated, which Ford attributes to a software issue. Despite multiple repair attempts and clear safety concerns, these problems remain unresolved. I respectfully request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration review this matter, as the defects appear to be systemic and pose a potential risk to drivers. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.

My 2019 Ford Edge begin to stutter after I reached 60k miles. When I accelerate it stutter between 15-35 MPH I called Bill Brown Ford spoke to a service advisor , she stated it’s in the transmission so I took my vehicle to a transmission shop was informed nothing wrong with trans. The car jerks during take off biggest fear it shutting down while driving. No warning signals in the dash just begin to drive differently during take off. Too many complaint for this not to be listed as a recall before someone gets hurt.

I was driving to work on a busy street, started accelerating and the car completely shut down on me. I had to come to a complete stop on the main road during morning rush hour. Was close enough to idle into a parking lot. All my dashboard lights started flashing with an "Engine Coolant Over Temperature" alert. No throttle response. Had to have the vehicle towed to the Ford dealership where they determine that the coolant was leaking into the engine. Replaced the EGR cooler ($2300). Drove off the lot and the vehicle was shuttering upon acceleration. A( A known issue with the Ford 2.0 ecoboost engines but yet there is no recall) after diagnosing, Ford came back and said I need to replace the torque convertor ($3100). This is a 2019 vehicle with 84,277 miles on it. These issues SHOULD NOT be happening. Ford has done nothing but issue TSB's on them.

Remedy: Dealers will update the rearview camera software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed September 4, 2025. Owners may contact Ford customer service at 1-866-436-7332. Ford's number for this recall is 25S72.
